Chapter 6 Borrowing a hoe at the door

Seeing Qiao Sheng come out of the thatched house, Xiao Shi looked at her and asked, "Mother, are you really better?" If your stomach is still upset, we will go and get the medicine. ”

Her son cares a lot about her.

Qiao Sheng said softly: "Mother, it's really better, let's go, Mother still wants to buy some vegetable seeds." ”

Hear the words.

Xiao Shi's little face wrinkled: "Mother, the vegetables we planted before were stolen by the big grandmother, do you still want to plant them?" ”

"Don't be afraid, if she dares to do that again, I will beat her to cry and call her mother."

After Qiao Sheng finished speaking, he led the small stone and walked towards the door of the shop.

Out of the shop.

Qiao Sheng pulled the little stone to the corner where no one was there and said, "Little stone, don't you wonder why your mother became so powerful all of a sudden?" ”

"Strange."

Xiaoshi raised his eyes and looked at Qiao Sheng and said.

Don't wait for her to say anything.

Xiao Shi continued: "Mother, I like you now, why have you become so powerful, you can say it if you want to, and forget it if you don't want to say it." ”

See him say that.

Qiao Sheng rubbed his head and started talking nonsense seriously.

"Didn't I go to the river this morning to fetch water? As a result, my feet slipped and my head hit one of the stones, and then I felt the world spin for a while, and the scenery around me changed all at once. ”

"I found that I went to another world, became a different person, and I learned a lot of things there, and it is because of this that I learned that acacia flowers can be eaten and can be used to make cakes."

Little Stone's eyes widened in surprise.

Qiao Sheng took Xiaoshi's hand and said, "Let's go, let's go buy vegetable seeds." ”

"Hmm!"

The little stone nodded his head.

Qiao Sheng took the small stone and walked to Wang Ji's shop, where the original owner had bought vegetable seeds, which were cheaper than other places.

When they went, Wang Kee's shop not only sold all kinds of vegetable seeds and other seeds, but also a small number of vegetable seedlings were placed at the door.

Because it was afternoon, the seedlings didn't look very fresh.

Qiao Sheng didn't ask yet.

A young man in his age of seventeen or eighteen came up to greet her: "Sister, do you want to buy vegetable seedlings?" These vegetable seedlings were sold cheaply, twenty plants for a penny. ”

Twenty plants for a penny?

Qiao Sheng looked at the young man and asked, "Little brother, how do you sell the vegetable seeds in your shop?" ”

The young man immediately introduced Qiao Sheng.

"The vegetable seeds sold in our shop are all available at the moment, green beans, cowpeas, edamame, lentils, pumpkins, and cauliflower are all 100 grains a penny. Celery, coriander, eggplant, and tomatoes are a little more expensive, fifty grains for a penny......"

After listening to his introduction.

Qiao Sheng bought pumpkin seeds, green bean seeds, cowpea seeds, celery, coriander, eggplant, tomatoes, and picked the ones she liked.

Buy them all.

It cost a total of six cents.

Gave money.

Qiao Sheng asked out loud: "Shopkeeper, do you have any leftover seeds from last year?" ”

The shopkeeper looked at her in bewilderment.

"Little lady, do you want to buy it? You still don't buy it, the seeds that were not sold out last year may not be able to be planted when you buy them back. Even if it is planted, the harvest is not as good as the seeds planted this year. ”

Others are also weird.

As everyone knows.

There is also a reason why the shopkeeper said this, firstly, there is not much left of the seeds that their shop did not sell out last year, and secondly, he plans to take them home and grow them himself.

Qiao Sheng opened his lips and said, "Shopkeeper, thank you, but I still want to buy it." ”

The shopkeeper saw that Qiao Sheng was determined to buy it, and he shouted that the young man just now took Qiao Sheng and them to the backyard warehouse to pick them, and after picking them, they took them directly to the front to settle the account.

Although Xiao Shi was also puzzled, he still didn't say anything after thinking about it.

Qiao Sheng asked Xiaoshi to stay in front and watch things, and she followed the young man towards the backyard warehouse.

Take a look at it.

Qiao Sheng picked four things, rice seeds, wheat seeds, rape seeds, and radish seeds.

The young man couldn't help but say, "Sister, the wheat is about to be harvested, and now is not suitable for planting this." Rice can be planted, but this is last year, and the germination is not as good as this year. Rape and white radish, too. ”

"Little brother, let's be honest, I bought it for other uses."

Qiao Sheng said so.

The young man said nothing more.

Rice seeds, 20 yuan per catty.

Since it was last year, the price was cheaper, ten cents per catty.

Wheat seeds, 18 yuan per catty, 10 yuan cheaper for Qiao Sheng, that is, 8 yuan a catty.

Rapeseed, 18 cents per catty.

White radish seeds are cheaper than those vegetable seeds before, two hundred grains a penny.

People give so much less.

Qiao Sheng didn't buy too little, so he asked for half a catty of rice, half a catty of wheat, five pennies rape seeds, and one penny of radish seeds.

The shopkeeper saw that Qiao Sheng bought so much, and he gave her two pumpkin seedlings.

Thanks to the shopkeeper.

Qiao Sheng gave the money and left here with Xiaoshi.

It didn't go far.

Xiaoshi looked at Qiao Sheng and said, "Mother, we don't have a hoe at home, do we still borrow it from Aunt Qiaoqiao like we used to?" ”

Aunt Qiaoqiao?

Zhang Qiao?

He didn't say it, she didn't even remember, they didn't have a hoe at home.

Qiao Sheng came back to his senses and said: "At the moment, I can only borrow it from your Aunt Qiaoqiao, she helps us so much, my mother will thank her well in the future." ”

"Hmm."

Little Stone answered and didn't say anything more.

Return to the mountain temple where you lived.

Qiao Sheng hid the things he bought, took the small stone and walked to Zhang Qiao's mother-in-law's house.

That's right.

Zhang Qiao married in this village.

The man she married was surnamed Sun Shuisheng, and the two of them got married and now have a son and a daughter, a son is five years old, and a daughter is three years old.

Sun Shui usually works at the dock in the town and goes home every evening.

Zhang Qiao's mother-in-law's family is not rich, and their life is just a little better than theirs.

First, Sun Shuisheng's father is in poor health all year round and often has to take medicine. Second, Zhang Qiao and several of his children are studying.

"Bang bang."

Qiao Sheng knocked on the door of Zhang Qiaopo's house.

Zhang Qiao was sweeping the yard at this time, and suddenly heard a knock on the door outside, and she strode to open the door.

At first glance, it was Qiao Sheng and Xiao Shi.

Zhang Qiao said with a smile: "Lotus, little stone, it's you, hurry, go and sit inside." ”

"Qiao'er, we won't go in to sit down, we are here to borrow a hoe."

Qiao Sheng said straight to the point.

That's what I heard.

Zhang Qiao didn't ask much, and asked Qiao Sheng and them to wait, she turned around and went to get the hoe.

She was just about to hand the hoe to Qiao Sheng.

A strange yin and yang voice came from the side.

"Brother and sister, didn't I say you, our hoe is blown by a strong wind? Someone else borrowed, and you just lent it out so simply? ”

"Oh, it's Qiao Lianhua."

"Brother and sister, who is Qiao Lianhua, don't you know? You're still dealing with her. She gave birth to a child before she got married, and you are not afraid that your daughter will follow in the future. ”

The person who spoke was none other than Zhang Qiao's sister-in-law Fang Hemiao.

Fang Hemiao is usually lazy and lazy, not to mention, and she is very bitter and mean.

Zhang Qiao said angrily: "Sister-in-law, what nonsense are you talking about, the little stone was adopted by Lotus, where was she born, don't listen to the wind is the rain!" ”
